The layout and architectural elements date the Church of St. Barbara to the 17th century. Intended for cemetery use, this use ceased in 1931. Gradually church and cemetery were abandoned and ransacked, with the destruction of burial slabs inside the church and graves.
When the city administration stepped in with a restoration project in 1982, the church was in a precarious condition.
The building is an example of minor religious architecture because of some of the furnishings present.
It consists of a single rectangular room with a gabled-type elevation, very simple and without any special decorative elements, with a portal surmounted by a window, both framed by squared sandstone ashlars; a single-light bell gable ends the facade above. The pitched roof with tile covering is supported by a wooden truss structure.
The interior has a single nave, divided into two bays by a pointed arch diaphragm resting on half-pillars with projecting molded capitals. On the square stone floor are six tombs that were closed with slate slabs.
Two items of value for workmanship and rarity are the carved stone altar and the stone stoup.
